[Father]
It's Not Time To Make A Change,
Just Relax, Take It Easy.
You're Still Young, That's Your Fault,
There's So Much You Have To Know.
Find A Girl, Settle Down,
If You Want You Can Marry.
Look At Me, I Am Old, But I'm Happy.

I Was Once Like You Are Now, And I Know That It's Not Easy,
To Be Calm When You've Found Something Going On.
But Take Your Time, Think A Lot,
Why, Think Of Everything You've Got.
For You Will Still Be Here Tomorrow, But Your Dreams May Not.

[Son]
How Can I Try To Explain, When I Do He Turns Away Again.
It's Always Been The Same, Same Old Story.
From The Moment I Could Talk I Was Ordered To Listen.
Now There's A Way And I Know That I Have To Go Away.
I Know I Have To Go.

[Father]
It's Not Time To Make A Change,
Just Sit Down, Take It Slowly.
You're Still Young, That's Your Fault,
There's So Much You Have To Go Through.
Find A Girl, Settle Down,
If You Want You Can Marry.
Look At Me, I Am Old, But I'm Happy.

[Son]
All The Times That I Cried, Keeping All The Things I Knew Inside,
It's Hard, But It's Harder To Ignore It.
If They Were Right, I'd Agree, But It's Them You Know Not Me.
Now There's A Way And I Know That I Have To Go Away.
I Know I Have To Go.
